    WAG Open back leotard brands?

    Does anyone know of any open back leotard companies? I’m a teen and don’t want any crazy designs, but am obsessed with the open back look.

    WAG Leotard sizing help

    Could someone measure a leotard in size AS, AM or AL from GK (from the shoulder in front to the crotch and also from the armpit to the armpit). I need help, I'm sewing leotards and I have to check how the measurements in the pattern compare to the more well known leotard sizes. Thank you in...

    Anon Multi year comp leo fit- what’s normal?

    Our gym does a 2-year leotard and switched to Ozone last year. This is the first year my daughter hasn’t sized up from one season to the next. Her comp leotard started the season looking a tiny bit big (wrinkled fabric across the back) but she gained height and muscle and it fit nicely by...

    Anon Leo Brand Ambassadors

    Am I the only one disturbed by some of the images posted by leotard brand ambassadors? Add to that how a lot of these girls and/or their parents post videos tagging their home gym. It would be so easy for an online creep to find out where these girls live. I just find it frightening.

    Parents How much is your comp leo?

    We just got an estimate for the new one, and it's a record-high $375. Is this normal nowadays?

    Anon Compulsories wearing graduation year leos

    Image added by ChalkBucket There seems to be a new trend with some of the level 3s and 4s at our gym wearing leos with their graduation year on the back (2032! 2033!) I don't think the coaches like this much. I think those parents are crazy and putting way too much pressure on young kids...

    WAG Sewing leotards

    Hi all! I have started to learn how to sew leotards. Does anyone else sew? I would love to chat about different techinques etc. I've made two leos so far but it has taken a lot of practice to sew lycra and elastics. What I'm still struggling with is sewing pretty bindings to the neckline and...

    Anon Why is this a thing? (leotard required)

    Before I start- I am not trying to hate on leotards. I have other things to do than to rant about certain pieces of fabric. Also, people can and should wear whatever they want without being shamed for it, if its a bikini or a burka. . This question just comes from genuine curiosity. The gym...

    WAG Cheap/relatively inexpensive leotards?

    Where are some places to find decent quality, basic leotards under $50? Since I only do gymnastics recreationally I guess I could just wear t shirts but I like to wear leotards with leggings for modesty reasons (meaning no stomach showing when flipping or being upside down). The one I currently...

    WAG Washing leos

    I read some of the other threads on this, and most said they either hand wash or wash in the laundry, separately from other clothes. I can't do the laundry option cuz there are too few leos for that so.. What do you use for hand washing? Any specific soaps/detergents/washing liquids?

    WAG Stretching a Leo, 101

    Would like to know if anyone has a way to stretch the arms and chest area out on a competition leo. Have done the crotch thing with the weights to make one longer….not sure if this would help the shoulders and chest. Anyone?

    Parents How often do you get new leos?

    My DD is going into her 5th year on team with her gym. We are only supposed to get new leos every two years, but since covid we have gotten new leos every year. Is this typical with your gyms? Or is this something that stemmed from covid? Just curious if this is common.

    Parents Leotard recs

    My youngest DD struggles with eczema. We are having a hard time keeping it under control and there is a direct correlation with her increasing her gym hours and having her eczema get worse. Our doctor seems to think that it is related to her being in leotards more frequently and the spandex...

    WAG How do gymnasts or their parents care for their gymnastics leotards and care for them before while and after wearing?

    I am new to the gymnastics scene and leotards and everything and as I don’t know much have some questions. When wearing a workout leotard is there anything to do or not do while wearing it or anything to know to care for it so it doesn’t get ruined? Can you wear it after practice for the rest of...

    WAG $500+ competition leo!?!?

    My daughter is entering into her 2nd competitive year, Xcel Silver. Fortunately for her first year we were able to get her competition leo and warmups 2nd hand. This year our gym is doing new competition leos, GK brand and we’ve been told that the $250 deposit should “hopefully cover half the...

    Parents Best leo brands?

    What are the best leo brands when thinking about comfort, availability, sizing, and price? I'm sure there are many other factors, but I just named a few.

    Parents Salute Leos Processing Time

    Hi! So I placed an order with Salute Leos last month. It’s been 6 weeks with no sign of the order shipping. I emailed the company 3 weeks ago to check in and got a vague response about the leos being custom made and taking some time but no indication of when they would be shipped. And there is...
